Cancer

Integrative Oncology is a field of medicine focused on complementary cancer care to support one’s skillfully directed conventional oncology plan. Unfortunately, health is not a topic often discussed in a typical oncologist’s office as they are focused on killing cancer. However, the healthy cells and systems of the body are inevitably impacted by the toxicity and harshness of conventional treatments. Unless interventions are put into place to remedy that impact on the body, people can suffer for years with downstream effects of that disruption. 

Some of the common complaints we are successful in helping with include:

–Fatigue

–Brain Fog

–Hot Flashes

–Weight Gain (or loss)

–Joint pain

–Neuropathy

–Anxiety and Depression

–Digestive disturbance

There are additional obstacles that can prevent us from living our fullest lives that must be addressed if we want to prevent a recurrence. Such obstacles are not always related to cancer and cancer treatment. In fact, many of the same obstacles that led to people’s cancer initially may still be present afterward, and we want to help people navigate a new way of being without these harmful barriers. Some of these include addictions, stress-induced trauma, not having healthy boundaries with your time, fear of failure, lack of confidence, a history of not following through, etc. You are not alone if you relate to one or more of these obstacles. However, the truth is that if you do not find a good mentor and/or therapist to help you, then the recurrence of cancer is much more likely. Benjamin Franklin said, “How few there are who have courage enough to own their faults, or resolution enough to mend them.”

If you are ready to face your fears, and not just restore a sense of normalcy because you know that your old “normal” led to a body that allowed cancer to take over, then you owe it to yourself to ask for help and follow through with the opportunity you are given when it comes. For, it will likely not come around again. If that opportunity has led you here, then we would love to learn more about you and how we can help. It is more than likely we can.
